Pseudochalcothea auripes is a beetle of the family Scarabaeidae and subfamily Cetoniinae.
This species can reach about 30–35 millimetres (1.2–1.4 in) in length. It is endemic to Malaysia and Borneo.
The family Scarabaeidae, as currently defined, consists of over 30,000 species of beetles worldwide; they are often called scarabs or scarab beetles. The classification of this family has undergone significant change in recent years. Several subfamilies have been elevated to family rank, and some reduced to lower ranks. The subfamilies listed in this article are in accordance with those in Bouchard (2011).
Euphoria is a genus of scarab beetles in the subfamily Cetoniinae, the flower or fruit chafers. They are native to the Americas, where they are distributed from Canada to Argentina. They are most diverse in Mexico and Central America. As of 2012, there are 59 species in the genus.
Flower chafers are a group of scarab beetles, comprising the subfamily Cetoniinae. Many species are diurnal and visit flowers for pollen and nectar, or to browse on the petals. Some species also feed on fruit. The group is also called fruit and flower chafers, flower beetles and flower scarabs. There are around 4,000 species, many of them still undescribed.
Goliathus orientalis is a species of beetles belonging to the family Scarabaeidae.
The bee beetles are scarab beetles of the subfamily Cetoniinae.
Trichius gallicus is a beetle species belonging to the family Scarabaeidae, subfamily Cetoniinae. It frequently appears in the literature under the name "Trichius rosaceus", but this name is permanently unavailable under ICZN Article 11.4, as are all of Voet's names.
Trichostetha fascicularis is a large, metallic-green beetle found in South Africa.
Pseudochalcothea is a genus of beetles of the family Scarabaeidae, subfamily Cetoniinae.

Theodosia viridiaurata are beetles from the family Scarabaeidae, subfamily Cetoniinae, tribe Phaedimini.
Batocera maculata is a species of flat-faced longhorn beetle in the subfamily Lamiinae of the family Cerambycidae. While originally named as "Lamia tigris" by Voet in 1778, no name was validly published for this species until 1817; Voet's 1778 work fails to fulfill the requirement in ICZN Article 11.4 that a work must be consistently binominal, and all names within that work are unavailable.
Hoplopyga brasiliensis is a species of beetles of the family Scarabaeidae.
